Does the Australian Medical Council Recognize Medical Degrees from Bangladesh?

The Australian Medical Council (AMC) assesses overseas-trained doctors for practice in Australia. It recognizes the following qualifications from Bangladesh:

• Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) from a recognized university.
• MBBS followed by a one-year AMC-approved bridging program.
• Doctor of Medicine (MD) from a recognized university followed by a one-year AMC-approved bridging program.

To be eligible, the degree must meet specific standards: it must be from a recognized Bangladeshi university, be equivalent to an Australian medical degree, include at least five years of study, and cover core disciplines such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology, pharmacology, microbiology, immunology, clinical medicine, surgery, psychiatry, and public health.

Additionally, candidates must pass the AMC's Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination (MCCQE) Part I and Part II. For full details, visit the AMC website.
